I also consider, Gentlemen, that. you have been grossly insulted by her Majesty's pettifogging Mi nisters in refusing to place the name of that Gentleman on the Committee, who has such a thorough knowledge of the subject, and who has dsvoted so much of his valuable time, in searching out the profligacy of the distribution of what should be only given to those who well merit the same.

Since the p ass i ng of the Act of Incorporation the Directors have ascertain e d all the liabilities of the Company —the engineering ex penses—the costs of soliciting the Act through Parliament in two distinct sessions—the charg e for surveys to Limerick, Cahir, and Wexford—and the general expenses of the Company ; and they have much satisfaction in stating that, after discharging all these engagements, a considerable balance will remain at the disposal of the Directors. The Directors refer to this fact in proof of the strict economy with which they have administered the funds of the Company, and f the moderate amount of the legal and engineering expenses. By the Act of Incorporation, the possession of a most important and profitable line of railway passing through a populous country, and one also peculiarly favourable to the formation of the railway, is secured to the shareholders, and the Directors are enabled to state, upon the authority of their engineers, that the cost of its for mation may and will be most materially reduced below the estimates laid before Parliament. By the calculations of income proved in the Committee on the it was shown that allowing 501. per cent. of the income for the annual expenses of the undertaking, a profit of 10/. to 121. per cent. would remain to the shareholders. The report of their en gineers justifies the Directors in believing that this profit will be fully realised. The Act of Incorporation having directed that the earlier part of the line should be made of such width as should be recommended by the Railway Commissioners for Ireland, the Directors have ap plied to the Commissioners to be informed the width they propose to recommend, acid their re p or t h as b een promised to be laid before Parliament early in this session. As the Directors feel that the interests of the shareholders will be best consulted by the active commencement of the works as soon as practicable, they have directed the line, for the first eighteen miles, to be marked out, and the value of the land required to be ascer tained, that TM impediment to the prosecution of the works may exist; and the Directors beg to call the attention of the holders of the Scrip receipts to the necessity of having their shares registered at the Office of the Company - .

T 0 pre vent t h e Public being imposed upon by BETTSspurious i m i tat i ons of the PATENT BRANDY, J. T. and C o. particularly request that they will observe,— that their Brandy is the Only One for which a Patent has been obtained, —the Only One recommended by the Faculty for Medical pur poses, —and the Only One which has stood the test of Chemical analysis : the reports made upon productions which others have submitted to the test, having invariably been such as they have not dared to make public : it is therefore essentially requisite that pur chasers should be perfectly sattsnen watt the identity of the article. The Distillery, No. 7, Smithfield-Bars, adjoining the Cattle Market, is the Only Establishment of J. T. BETTS and Co., where the Patent Brandy may be had either pale or coloured; and if required, will be sent free of expense to any part of the Town, in quantities not less than two Gallons, at Eighteen Shillings per Im perial Gallon, of the highest legal strength, for Cash on delivery. - F R AMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH FOR TH .

We have no reason to complain of a paucity of readers ; but if each one we now have would procure us another, they would so far strengthen our hands as to enable us to add greatly to the power of the Penny Gazette, by considerable improvements in all its departments.

Winchester House, 24th November, 1837. My dear Sir.,—l have just received the enclosed from the India House, in consequence of the application which, on your sugges tion, I made some time ago, for a copy of the new regulation re elating the liort to port trade in India, for the information of mer chants kid ship-owners interested in the imbject. It is a melitire t#pen which, during its pi ogress, 1 have bestowed n anxious attention: ; its well from the representation' that have Icon made to me, as from 7.1 Y own deep sense of its importance. The arrangement will, I trust, give general satisfaction to the cernmereial and shipping interests of the empire for, while it re moves vexatious disabilities and useless restrictions from the trade between our Indian possessions and foreign countries, its provisions are framed in accordance with the principle of our Navigation Laws, by securing the carrying and coasting trade in India exclusively to native and British shipping. Melt of the former regulations enacted by the Indian authorities, under the powers vested in them by 37 6eo. 111. are repealed ; is d"ed, those regulations have reference chiefly to a state of things no longer existing, having been framed from time to time, under the varying political circumstances. and changes of commercial and maritime policy, which have - , ..iceessirely prevailed in India, as well as in the mother country, during the eventful period of the last forty years. I may add, that the Board of Trade, as well as the India House authorities, have concurred in the new regulation, which has ap peared to them sufficiently clear and comprehensive, in its provi sions, to preclude any misconstruction, and at the same time to embrace all the important objects contemplated by its enactment. Should you wish any further explanation on the subject, I shall be happy to give it you.—l remain, my dear Sir, yours very truly, (Signed) GEORGE LYAi-P. To J. W. Buckle, Esq. (COPY.) ' Eist India House, :.11 November, 1837. am commanded, by the Court of DirecLorn of the East India Company, to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 17th instant, and agreeably to your request to transmit - to you, for the information of the merchants and ship-owners interested in the subject, a copy of the enacting part of a regulation affecting the port•to port trade in India, which was transmitted to the Govern ment of India, under date the 28th July last, with instructions to promulgate and carry the same into effect.—l have the honour to be, Sir, &c. (Signed) JAMES C. MELVILL, Secretary. To George Lyall, Esq., &e. &c. " Foreign ships, belonging to any State or country in Europe, or in America, so long as such States or countries respectively re main in amity with her Majesty, may freely enter the British sea ports and harbours in the East Indies, whether they come directly from their own country, or from any other place, and shall be there hospitably received. " And such ships shall have liberty to import into such sea ports, from their own respective countries, goods, the produce of their countries, and to export goods from such sea-ports to any foreign country whatever, conformably to the regulations esta blished, or to be established, in such sea-ports. " Provided that it shall not be lawful for the said ships, in time of war, between the British Government and any State or Power whatever, to export from the said British territories, without the special permission of the British Government, any military or naval stores, saltpetre or grain, nor to receive goods on board at one British port of India, to be conveyed to another British port of India, on freight or otherwise ; but, nevertheless, the original in ward cagoes of such ships may be discharged at different British ports, and the outward cargoes of such ships may be laden at diffe rent British ports, for their foreign destinations." FRANCE (From the French Papers of Friday and Saturday.) THE LAST INFERNAL MACHINE —A letter from Doctor Kunzel on the history of the machine which was intended to be used by Hubert, is given by the Constitutionnel of Friday. According to this, it was in. vented ten years ago by a Swiss named Steuble, who took his plan to St. Petersburg, where he borrowed money of a man to whom he pledged it, but who attempted tosecure to himself the whole benefit of the discovery, which was to be exhibited to the Emperor Nicholas. Steuble having dis covered this, sold his machine t.) the British Charge d'Affaires for 12,0001., and on the morning of the day on which its powers were to be displayed to the Czar, contrived to explode and destroy it. The British Government having refused to perform the contract M. Steuble came to France, anti offered his machine to the Government, but meeting with no success, went to Vienna, leaving it in the hands of his son; with the nature of whose transactions with Hubert the Doctor is unacquainted. The following is the description he gives of the machine t—lt is a single cannon, placed on an ordinary gun-carriage, having several mouths, which throw 172 balls in a minute, or 10,220 in an hour, car ying them to a distance of 2,500 feet. This gun, which requires six men to serve it, and may be drawn by four horses, is intended for beseiging fortresses ; but Steuble has formed field pieces upon the sine model, throwing 8,160 balls in an hour, and mountain guns throwing 6,000 balls in the same time. The Bank of France has issued a notice, that from January 2 It will give bills payable at sight, to order, and consequently negotiable by cridorcement, for any sum from 500 f. to 20,000 L The demand made by travellers for negotiable paper on Paris, and the facilitating of the circulation of money between different commercial places, have induced the Bank to adopt this measure. Application must be mate., at the Caisse des Recetees. The Constitutionnel mentions a report as being current yesterday, that in consequence of the events in 11.•Igium and the attempts of Hol land, the French Government had given orders for a corps of observa tion to be formed on the frontier. According to certain diplomatic rumours which we deem deserving of credit, the Emperor Nicholas persists in his resolution to marry the Grand Duchess Olga to the Duke of Bourdcaux, and is now negotiating another union for his son and heir with Princess Clementine of Baden. This Princess, who is only 18 years of age, is very handsome, and highly sccomplished. If we are to believe some Court indiscretions, her picture was sent two years ego to the Autocrat, and the mar. !lags is now on the point of being concluded. The Russian monarch is said to insist, as a sine qua non, on the dismissal of two Mnisters of Baden, belonging to the French party, and on their successors being chosen from among the friends of the Muscovite system. Russia in. tends, moreover, to avail herself of the influence this matrimonial al liance will secure to her for the purpose of urging the construction of the fortress of Itastadt, for which France was obliged to pay a war contribution in 1815. These facts are not official, but have obtained some credence in the diplomatic circles.—Le Commerce. CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, FRIDAY, DEC. 29, ELRCTION OF THE COMMITTEE ON TIE •DDRISS. The discussion of the address in the first Standing Committee off,red little idterest. M. Boissy d'Anglas was returned a Commissioner by 22 rotes. In the second Committee M. Glaig Bazoin began by demanding the repeal of the laws of September, and was supported by M. Ma7ti:i (du Bas Rhin). Messrs. Chegaray and Jollivet contended for the utility of those laws, and opposed their repeal. M. Tillers insisted on the neces sity of the amnesty being extended to contumacious political offenders. M. Martin likewise concurred in the measure, which was resisted by M. de liau+sy. On the question of the reduction of the Five per Oents. th- Committee was unanimous in proclaiming it a useful and equitable measure, but thought that the initiative there ,f should be left to the Government. M. Guizot, seeing lie had no chance of being re turned a member of the Committee on the address, invited his friends to vote in favour of M. de Berigny, a Ministerialist, who obtained 04 votes, against M. Chaix d'Est Ange, who had 19, and M. Gillon, the other anti.doctrinaire candid.te, 0. Genseil Jacqueminot, as a deputy for Paris, pleaded the cause of the 80,000 rentiers, its inhabitants, who would suffer by the reduction of the 5 per Cents. As regarded Algiers, the General observed, that it was a que.tion deserving the most serious attention, that the blood and treasure of France should be reserved for the defence of her continental territory, and that, if attacked on the Rhine, it wood take a gre.4 deal of time to transport thither the 54,000 men necessary for the occupation of Algiers. The discussion being closed, M. Jacqueminot was elected commis. sinner of the address, by 22 votes, in opposition t M, Sauze', who obtained 20. In the fourth committee, M. Salverte having inquired of M. Salvandy what the Government intended to do with Algiers, the Minister replied that "it meant to retain it as a French province." In the third Committee, M. Sauzet contended that the Government should be required to continue in the new road opened by the amnesty. M. Sauzet blamed the silence observed, in the speech with regard to England, the alliance of which state had been so advantagems to the dynasty of July, and said, that the Minister of Foreign Affairs should be called upon to give categorical explalations on that subject. He then recommended that the Government should decide definitively what was to become of Algiers,—" that conquest so glorious for the French arms, so useful as a market for the agricultural produce of the southern departments, and so conducive to the future prosperity of French trade." Sauzet concluded by advocating the reduction of the 5 per Cents.— an operation which, he said, was perfectly practicable in the present flourishing state ~f the finances. Dufaure was then elected commissioner by 22 votes; 5 other op position votes were given to M. Salve:te. M. Amilhau had only 16. In the sth Committee, M. Passy was returned a Commissioner by 30 votes. M. Dumon had only 11. In the 6th Committee the discussion turned on the laws of Septem. bet'. Electoral Reform, the Amnesty, &c., but the Doctrinaires, repre. sented in It by M. Jaubert, were defeated on all tho,e paints. M. Bignon, of Nantes, had 19. In the 7th Committee, M. Martin (du Nord) stated that the policy of the present Cabinet was the continuation of that of the 11th Oc tober. M. Bernard (de Rennes) was then elected commissioner by '25 votes; M. Duvergier de Hauranne only obtained 14, An angry discussion, which occurred in the Bth Committee, between Messrs. L'Herbette and Berenger, both of Opposition, was the cause o of a division between the Tiers Parti and the Gauche, and of the success of M. Belleyma. In this Committee M. Rosamel, the Minister of Marine, announced that the Luxemburg affair was setaed. In the 9th Committee the reduction of the Rentes was advocated by Messrs. Drautt and C unin Gridiane, and opposed by M. Gisquet. M. S'. Marc Girardin was el"cted commissioner by 27 votes. M. C. Gridainc obtained 16. On the 31st of December, 1836, the thcr►nomett r stood at 32 in the afternoon, ‘vith north-rest wind and snow ; yesterday. at 011 VIM hour, it stood nearly 52, with a south west wind and. sunshine. .

(From the morning On Saturday, until near the close of business, the appearance of the English Stock Market was animated, and it ,seemed as If the year would . terminate cheerfully, but some sales of money stock were then effected, which gave rise to various rumours both as r e ds Canada as well as I.olland, which afterwards proved unfounded , or , at least, could net he traced to any authentic source, and a fall of I per cent, occurred in Consols, the quotation at the termination being 92 to P 24, after having been 921 in the morning. Exchequer hills remain at 445. to 465. prem. ; India Bonds, 23a. to 275. prem.; and rank Stock 204 to 905. Foreign Sacurities were all more or less influenced by the stale of Consols, especially those of high price, and left off heavy—Dutch 1:a/ per Cents, at 1001 to % ; ditto Two-and-a-lialf per Cents, 53!4 to I e Belgian 100 to 101; Danish, 72 to 73 ; Braellian, 73 % to 74 }a ; Portuguese Five per Cents. 291 to 30 ; ditto Three per Cents., 191# to ; Mexican, 26 to j, ; and Colombian, 231 to 24. Spantsb Semi• ties maintained themselves fully, but this is attributable chiefly to a feeling i: very general, and we believe well founded, that some arrangement ia 0n tt. lapis in respect to the debt of Spain.

The day closes one of the most eventful commercial years wbSCh haw perhaps ever occurred or the annals of this country, and a considerable pet iod must elapse bet re its effects can be wholly obliterated. The year 1837 has been one of almost continual difficulty and gloom, caused principally by the disasters which took place in the American trade* in the early part of the year, and which indirectly have spread their influence all over the world. So great is now the extent of English intercourse with the United States, that almost every department of industry is compelled to sym pathise wiih the breaking down and stagnation of that once gigantic branch of British trade. The toss of fortune iet manufacturing districts has been certainly very severe In consequence of this revolution in the business of the j a . nited States, whilst the con. Untied stagnation of the expert trade to that County,' has given little opportunity for profit, or extended operations for t:i'e regaining of the capital which has been sacrificed by the prostration of es? great a number of merchants, both in this country and America. In the East Indian and China trade very extrusive depreciations in price, and a'neequeue losses of capital, have likewise occurred, and probably In no yg:,sr has the kingdom witnessed the downfal of so rmny large and pcoveo- 11 mercantile establishments as in that which to.morrow altogether closes. To counterbalance the mournful retrospect of the yeas there is, however, some consolation in reflecting that :at lengths the light has fully broken in upon the cause of these periodical' disasters in the mercantile world ; for the discussions in this and other principal journals have tended to exhibit in all its deformity the power over the Money Market enjoyed by the Bank of Eng. land, to the destruction of all permanent commercial prosperity, and to which is so clearly to be traced the misfortunes which have cc. unc tin the present year to so many thousands of the families- of mere-bents, manufacturers, shipowners, and thousands upon thousands of the manufacturing population of the north. The irregular manage. ment, to say the least, of that institution is now known to be the prime cause of these seasons of misery, but it is indeed a consolatoay and cheerful reflection that the panic of 1537 will most probably have been the last which the now exposed mismanagement of the Batik of England will be able to create.—Mornisrg Chronicle. Ihe turn in the American exchanges, which, by the calculation last given, were shown to be near 21 per cent. against this country, ought to become, both from its causes and its probable consequences, a sub ject of very serious cornidera•ion. Every one knows how large, only a few months back, was tle debt owed by tl e United Stater to this country and to Europe, yet this fact would indicate that the greater portion of it has, by some mac or other,beenliquidated, and that the scale is now turning the other way—that the balance of trade is greatly in favour of America There are two method's of settling an account; one by a payment, the other by bankruptcy, and it makes all the difference to England which of them has, in this instance, been resorted to ; and, supposing a mixtur • of both, on which rOde the preponderance rests Now we cannot help fearing, wile:, there is taken into account the vast lcsses which very great houses are admitted to have sustained by their commerce with America, with the non-payment of any dividend by those houses who sunk under the difficulties io which it involved them, that by far the larger portion of this mass of debt has been paid by bankruptcy, and is irretrievably lost. it may be otherwise, an.l we sincerely hope it le so, but on the facts which are known and notorious it is Impossible to come to any other conclusion. This question disposed of, and the weight removed 'front the United States, there next comes into action the traffic of all kinds—cotton, state stocks and Londs, which must mow be poured into this country, the vigour of which, without referring to any other index, may be unerringly estimated by this sudden turn which has taken place in the exchanges between the two countries, It is material to know, possessing as we do, and as is now openly de. elated, " a manager of the currency" without any power of controlling it, in what manner this new torrent is to be resisted.— Times. Mr. Van Buren's experiment upon the monetary system of the United States, stiil continues to occupy the attention of the public. According to the late private letters from the United States, there is every-reason to believe that his crusade against the United States Bank will entirely fail. The very heavy amount of Dutch securities now held by British ca pitalists, is becoming a serious consideration in our money market, be cause there is an impression that the Netherlands Government tail pro. bably increase the present issue of their bonds ; it will therefore become an objsct with them to watch the fivancial movements of rho Dutch Go. vernment.—Morning Herald. 'We perceive by the papers that Mr. Samuel Jones Loyd, of the emi. nent banking firm 'Yep Lothbury, has published another pamphlet on the monetary c mcerns of the country. We have not ourselves found time as 3ct to look at the week in question, but shall perhaps do s on n future day, when a little more at leisure. We may remark in the inter. eel that theobservations passed upon it by our conte.uporaries have beets less carnalineotary than upan Mr. Loyd's former essay on the same sub ject. We doubt not the writer's theories may be very good, but, like many other plausible theories, they are such, from all we hear of them, as are not easily reducible to practice. Sir. Loyd seems to hare laboured to establish the fact, that the Bent authorities have not, in every instance, acted up to the principle ,that some of their number consider it desirable to act up to, but which is not at all times, and under every change'of our commercial affairs, practicable. If this be the case, Mr. Loyd might Irive spared hin:self the task, as we dare say the point would have been readily enough conceded. Mr. Loyd, as we:l as many other wri:ers upon this intricate subject, has his crotchets; and, i i defence of them, notwithstand ng his affected candour and , "'senility, he goes to lengths which circumstances do not exactly war rant. Some of our Contemporaries are, or pretend to be, simple enough to imagine that it is out of pure patriotism that Mr. Loyd takes up the pen, and that he has not the remotest interest in the matter treated of; but we beg leave to remelts that the very reverse of this is the case, and that a more prejudiced authority could not, in all probability, be consulted. Mr. Loyd is, it is well knowe, a partner in one or more of the most extensive banking.houses in England. It is equaly well known that there is a direet clashing of interests between the Bank of England branches and the great Mancheiter concern. Hose, then, can it be otherwise? The truth is, the attacks on the Beak of Eirgiond all procc.d from a more or he s interested source. These are everywhere " wheels within whee!s," and nearly all that is said or written upon the monetary system should be received with stispscion. It is now admitted I, on all hands, that the Bank of England have passed triumphantly through the late crisis, and that the able and liberal management of I h • Dire tors has saved us f.om a convulsion that might have been over. whelm:ng in its consequences. It is seen, moreover, from the state of its accounts, as published from month to menth, that the Bank was never in a safer and better rsition than at the present mo,n.nt, or one better calculated to meet the legitimate demands of Ere publi We can never bring ourselves to s. y much in praise of a writer who pteS bims,lf for. ward as the champion of those national robberies which are carried on, under the denominations of foreign loans, by nests of ,p , ,culatorti in the vicinity of Mr. Lloyd's own place of business.—Mornioo Post. The Marquis of Waterford, at his own expense, has directed the comity surveyor to make a new line of road frond Dungarvon to Shandon, which it is supposed will enhance ht Lordship's property at least 2,000/. a-year, besides being of very great public utility, the property being now shut out from the town for want of a road and other communications. Earl and Countess Peulett are seeing company at Hinton, St. George, Somerset. Lord and Lady Bridport have been among their gcests. The Duke of Norfolk, at Arundel Castle, and also at Fornham, St. Genevieve, Suffolk, has been very liberal to the poor at this festive season. Major-Gcnrral Sir George Arthur, the new Go vernor of Upper Canada, left town by mail last night for Purtsmouth, to embark on board the Sampson, bound for New York. Ile has appointed his son, Lieuicnant F. L. Arthur, of the 4th, or King's own Regiment, his Aid-dc-Camp and Mili'ary Ste etary. The Mgr/borough, Lord Howo's•shp, in the baffle of the Ist of June, 1794, haying reduced two of her antago ni,ts to wrecks, was atacked by a third, the Fiench Admiral's ship, which carried away 1,11 her masts.
